Pro Football Focus took a gander at the NFL’s offering for fantasy football quarterbacks and grouped them into tiers for 2019. The top-two tiers consist of Patrick Mahomes by himself in one and Andrew Luck and Deshaun Watson sharing another. To find the Buffalo Bills’ Josh Allen, you’d have to skip over a few to tier-7A.
Allen found himself alongside Lamar Jackson, Mitchell Trubisky, and Jimmy Garoppolo in tier-7A — otherwise known as “late-round high ceilings.” All four, including Allen, are limited in their success as fantasy options but have the upside to be No.
